Snot central

It's now been a week since we stopped nursing, and it hasn't been so bad. She's asked a few times but is easily distracted, so we have really stopped. I haven't had much pain at all, but now a week later it seems I have one last plugged duct for old times' sake.

And hey, I'm not saying there's a direct correlation, but she just developed a nasty, wet, bark of a cough. We nursed for nineteen months and she never had more than a cold, and now one week after I cut her off, she's sicker than she's ever been.

The poor tot is a drippy, congested mess, and is a tantrum powder keg. If hokey-pokey Elmo looks at her the wrong way, she's ready to blow.
